Become a Trustee

Thank you for your interest in becoming a trustee.

White Eagle Lodge is looking for trustees to complement and strengthen our existing Board.

Membership of the Board of Trustees involves a considerable commitment as well as substantial skills and experience in order to contribute actively to the White Eagle Lodge's strategic development. Trustees are also directors of the company, with legal responsibilities for governance and financial stewardship. Our trustees are key to ensuring we continue to remain a viable organisation and stay on track to deliver our charitable objectives.

We are keen to hear from people from a variety of backgrounds but specifically candidates with strengths in: legal, business management, marketing, fundraising or finance and investment.

Interested applicants should be able to demonstrate strong competencies in their individual field of expertise, a genuine empathy for the ethos of the White Eagle Teachings and support for the charity’s overall aims and objectives.

Personal gravitas, excellent interpersonal skills and your ability to collaborate effectively will be key, and you must be able to demonstrate a track record of sound judgment and effective decision making.

The role of the trustee is a rewarding one. We meet three times per year (two days on each occasion). Twice in-person at New Lands (Hampshire, UK) and once remotely, via Zoom. We liaise by Zoom and email on a regular basis between meetings.

Trustees are unpaid, although reasonable travel expenses are reimbursed.

For an informal discussion please contact Jason Wilson (trustee) on 07984 010762.

To apply, please send a CV and covering letter to the email address below explaining why you are interested in the position, and highlight any expertise you will bring:
